Missing: Where is Uhuru’s big brother Peter Magana?

Peter Magana meets Jomo Kenyatta at JKIA in July 1971

In a 1978 photograph taken during the funeral of founding President Jomo Kenyatta, Peter Magana is seen sitting third, after the late Margaret Wambui and Peter Muigai, itself symbolic because he was Mzee’s third oldest child.

Born of Mzee and Edna Clarke- who coincidentally did not sit at the front with co-wives Grace Wahu and official First Lady Mama Ngina, on August 11, 1943 - during the first president’s long sojourn in London, other photos show that Peter, his wife and children used to visit the family frequently.
